Major Depression now - thanks to that Type A workshop!! :cool:

Where did you get the info about the courses?

I did a course at Thornlie a while ago and need to think about another.

Cheers

Pablo.

Good Grief, Gordon.

Ken Dodd actually said something intelligible?!?

Well diddle-me-diddymen.

I'm on Channel 31 every Friday night (8.30pm Western Australian time) specifically to promote local events. We go throughout Australia so e-mail me details and I'll read...

Who do I approach to get permission to advertise this event on the tv show I'm on?

See my posting 12 April 2004.

:mad: Ugly as a hatful of squashed crabs!!

In fact, after one time I was interviewed, one of my own band members said I had a good face for radio!!

:D

Cheers!!

Check out the advice on my post "Kitchen Reno 80s" a few posts ago.

The advice was useful.

:confused:
That's a very good question; One to which I don't have a very good answer!!

All I know is I have to announce that we 'go' through the Westlink Satellite Network.

I don't even know...

Due to a very strange set of circumstances, I find myself on tv every Friday night. The show is called "Moose Goes Live" and goes live-to-air from 8.30pm - 9.30pm Western Australian time. The show...

:D
Thanks for the info!! While you were composing your reply, SWMBO was on the 'phone to, guess who??

Granite Transformations here in the West!! They're coming to see us after Easter. The...

SWMBO is planning to renovate the kitchen in our 80s house. We are looking at resurfacing the breakfast bar that was laminate and then was coated with a ceramic finish. That hasn't lived up to...

I will most certainly NOT be showing SWMBO this piece of furniture! I couldn't make one and she'd say, "Why not?" and I'd get upset and then I'd be in the doghouse and it would all be your fault.
...

Strikes me as how common sense ain't so common any more.

Nearly got caught with this one....

A neighbour (keen gardener, worked as a groundsman for a school) asked to borrow my chainsaw. I made the excuse that it wasn't running well and said "No."

A...

What a

a) Fantstically simple idea to solve a complex problem
b) Beautiful piece of work

It almost makes me want to go and cut a hole in a wall.

Can you access the DVDs facing one room,...

Good suggestions!!

I've just looked on the Carba-Tec site and the Delta 16" (not variable speed) is only $199. Having read the reviews, I would probably go for that one - or now that it's not...

Definitely Crime Converters!!

I don't know the size of the unit but if Carba-Tec sell one for less, with a warranty I'd maybe be better going to C-T.

I'll research some more.

Many thanks,...

SWMBO has given me permission to buy a scrollsaw I discovered at Cashies and I need to know if it may be a good deal.

The saw is a Carba-Tec and they want $199 for it. It appears to be in good...

Fantastic job!!

How did you get rid of all the paint from in the grain?

My wife is currently battling with white paint in jarrah grain on an 80 year old cupboard. Paint strippers, sanding and...

If you can see the picture on your screen, just right-click it and choose "Save Photo".

You may already know all this - but sometimes common knowledge is not so common!!

Do the images come up as a photo when you open the post? You may have to wait a few moments as some of the photos are large.

Hey! Nice aminals!!

Scroll saw?

Love the different woods.

Nicely work.

Cheers

I've been toying with the idea of a scroll saw - GMC $99 at Bummies.

I have to ask (because I don't know!!), what's the advantage of a scroll saw over a band saw? I have neither.

My Ryobi...

OK Guys - question time.

I thought "fuming" had something to do with Dutch Ovens and furious SWMBOs.

Why do you "fume" a piece of cabinet in ammonia?

Cheers

Pablo the Ignorant.:confused:

Ben - Thanks for the age compliment - it's my grandson (I've got two-and-a-half of them)!!

Peter - I cut the wheels out of the same piece of 19mm scrap using a hole saw and then laid the router on...

Little bugger wouldn't put the thing down!! He's got every plastic toy known to humankind - but it's great to see him preferring the wooden varieties.

Thanks for the reply. Some awesome stuff!! And some good links too.

Making the wheels was the best part - you should have seen one take off across the workshop propelled by the router!!
...

What happened to the first post? The one where I said that I was reluctant to post anything after seeing the fine work you guys do but I would post anyway in case there's other beginners like me!
...

2nd photo.

BTW the toy is for my 13 month old grandson - ideal hand-hole and rounded edges so as not to injure too many innocent bystanders!!

Cheers

What a beautiful piece of furniture. I'm simply blown away by such skill.

Haven't even heard of U-Beaut here in West Oz - apart from this great BB.

Cheers

Pablo

Remember:

She was only a woodcutter's daughter, but she gave him circular saws.

For Christmas? Birthday?

Before I murder several polyethylene cutting boards to make runners for my table-saw jig (see earlier post), what do you guys recommend to cut the polyethylene? Jig-saw? Circular saw? Laser beam?
...

Not that I can afford to give away a prize, but I should hold a competition to see who can guess why the team was called "12 Inch Rallying".

It might produce some interesting gueses!!

...

The blade was raised for the photo - but I too read the article on blade height and am now more confused than ever!

I guess confidence working with the machine defines your desire to risk the...

Thanks for the suggestions - I'll continue tinkering!!

Paul

I'm not always in my shed woodworking. Sometimes I look at the scenery for wood to work with. Perhaps we should have concentrated on rallying instead of looking at the scenery and trying to become...

As a complete beginner, I was stoked to successfully make anything!!

I got the ideas from a Time/Life video mr dear old Mum got me. I have to put the perspex guard above the cut line.
